The Passenger

This is quite a cool feat of animation.

How Lord of the Rings should have ended

Now this is pretty funny. Some people have waaaaay too much time on their hands, but at least they use it in creative ways.

Book Review of Tainted by Julie Kenner

Tainted by Julie Kenner


My rating: 4 of 5 stars
The story definitely had me guessing and on the edge of my seat most of the time. It also has a very twisted plot that kept things interesting. Definitely a must for those into urban dark fantasy genre with demon slaying.

U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein responding to Letter About National Pain Care Policy Act

Dear Mr. Lopez:

Thank you for contacting me to express your support for the "National Pain Care Policy Act of 2009." I appreciate hearing from you and welcome the opportunity to respond.

On March 19, 2009, Senator Orrin G. Hatch (R-UT) introduced the "National Pain Care Policy Act" (S. 660), which seeks to improve pain care research, education, training, and access. S. 660 would authorize an Institute of Medicine Conference on pain care, and create a grant program to help educate and train healthcare professionals to better assess and manage pain. Currently, S. 660 is pending in the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions. While I am not a member of this committee, please know that I will keep your comments in mind should this legislation come before the full Senate.

Again, thank you for contacting me. If you should have any further comments or questions, please feel free to contact my Washington, D.C. office at (202) 224-3841. Best regards.

Sincerely yours, Dianne Feinstein
        United States Senator

Quiznos is the sandwich of choice for playmates

The people over at The Denver Egotist spotted this commercial. Quiznos is denying they had anything to do with this commercial. To me it definitely sounds like something they would come up with. Especially after the creepy mutant hamster commercials.

Time was that Mac users would stare blankly or visibly shudder when the words 'command line interface' were uttered.

On Tuesday, Blizzard rep "Zarhym" posted on the World of Warcraft forums that the new MMOG was already underway and that "it'll be a brand-new franchise, which means the lore, art, and gameplay are being developed entirely from scratch." He added, "We have nothing to advertise for the new MMOG because it's a shell of a game thus far."
